Once, I started a new game in Morrowind as an Argonian merchant.

I travelled from town to town, buying wares on the cheap and selling them high, used a little alchemy to boost the profits on raw ingredients too and picked plants as I travelled.

And even though there was no mechanical reason, I didn't invest any time or skills in combat, if a Nixx hound attacked me on the road all I would do is run like hell.

So I was wondering if anyone else has done anything like this? Throw caution to the wind and play games wrong.
